Companion

The Captain is a descendant of an advanced species that has left this galaxy. Before leaving, his father gave him advanced technology, extreme abilities, and a sentient ship for his home. The Captain had not met a species with more advanced technology until his encounter with the Zolins. When the equally advanced Zolins become a threat to his system, the Captain can no longer avoid the war and joins with the Collection. The Collection is a military organization and has over a hundred member species. They are at war with the Zolins because the Zolins are now expanding their territory and invading occupied systems. The Collection sends the Captain to the Earth system to surveil Zolin ships that have taken an interest in the system. While there, he walks many human minds and becomes intrigued with a human female. He transports to her room and tells her he is offering her the opportunity to be his companion. If she agrees, she will have a life longer than other humans and a life of adventure. He says he is also recruiting her to work with the Collection in defeating the Zolins. He will teach her the Zolin language so she understands what she hears after he has trained her to walk Zolin minds.
